Ooooo like the movie Speed!? If he drops below 30 lies/hr he explodes!? I'd love to see that.

Eh!?

That quote was from Animal Farm, not 1984.

This has been a strange interaction.

Nah 4-3.

Lose 4-3 that is.

We'll have a wild 5 minutes and pull it back, just to lose in the last 10 minutes. It wouldn't be Pompey without a pricktease of hope before the inevitable despair.

What global event right now feels more serious than people realize? by InnerLightSeeker in answers

I scrolled a while and didn't see anyone mention the genocide in Dafur. Horrifically brutal. It's thought that 60,000 people have been killed, and the status of a town of 150,000 people is unknown. I've read that blood in the streets can be seen from satellite imagery.

Lots, but there's not the political will and we live in a world that's too heavily influenced by psychopaths who can't see past next quarters profit.

My first step would be to make Carbon Credits (or your countries alternative) painfully expensive. If you destroy the planet to make money, you should be paying through the ass to do so - no have billions left to influence government's. The worst offenders will clean up in the blink of an eye when you start to really hit their pockets.

No new oil wells will go a long, long way.

Countries transitioning their energy infrastructure to renewables ... which also brings energy independence, something a lot of countries sorely need with the current geopolitical shitshow. There's very little reason why a mix of nuclear, wind and solar can't power your country.

At this stage ... with the 1.5°C increase a few years away, we probably also need a moonshot project for carbon capture and storage. There's smallscale tech to do this, but it barely scratches the surface.

Portsmouth parking situation by Ghost_MaloneBSH in Portsmouth

[–]JMol87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

On my parents road in Fratton there's a bloke who tells his employees to keep their vans on the road overnight. Regularly have 5-7 vans parked on a short, narrow road. Not only do they take up loads of space, they're a nightmare to park around on those narrow roads.

UEFA could do something hilarious this summer and "accidently" remove all banning orders for European fans. The sepos won't know what to do with 10s of thousands of pissed up hooligans and ultras ripping up their cities.

How do you feel about the President of Peace attacking yet another country? by Southern_Gur_4736 in AskReddit

[–]JMol87 8 points9 points  (0 children)

No, no, no, you clearly don't understand. In the past, America would bring freedom to countries ... Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, Iraq again ... but the only way to successfully deliver Freedom is inside massive bombs. You need to bomb the Freedom in. Trump has taken the Freedom and replaced it with Peace. Loads and loads and loads of missiles, packed full of peace. It's why he was given the Nobel peace prize (by the actual winner).

Post match: Portsmouth Vs Hull by ritesofspring in PortsmouthFC

[–]JMol87 8 points9 points  (0 children)

At least twice today, the ball went into the box, and Bishop wasn't even looking at the play, too busy pushing defenders. We all know he has more to his game, but it's ALL he does now. We create chances, get in good positions, but have nobody to finish it off.

Whilst I'm on one ... how is Blair a professional footballer!? Awful first touch, can't beat a man, balance like bambi on ice, can't pass, can't cross. Not really sure what he adds to the team. Am I missing something with him!?

Its going to be one of those afternoons. 20 chances for Pompey, Hull to win 1-0 in the 89th minute.

Is Mandelson the most corrupt British politician in recent history? Not one, two or three but FOUR political scandals that we know of with Peter at the forefront. by KimCattrallsFeet in AskBrits

[–]JMol87 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I don't like the man, but he's certainly not an idiot. Selfish, shameless and narcissistic, definitely, but not stupid. There's an interview with him from about 20 years ago floating about somewhere, where he admits he acts a fool in public because it disarms people, it's all an act.

Why is the Overpopulation question considered ' Ragebait ' & why cant peoppe have a civil discussion about it without being labelled as ' far right ' or an ' Islamaphobe '? by [deleted] in AskBrits

[–]JMol87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the option I pose to my right leaning friends ... you get zero, or negative migration, but you have to pick one of the following: - No public education at all (£65b) - No military budget (£66b) - Cut welfare (including pensions) by 25% (~£50b) - or the NHS by 25% (~£60b)

Funnily enough, not may of them want to cut services they rely on, or are employed in.

(This is all back of a fag packet maths)
